Its not really overreach if they get a warrant and find the things they were looking for.

The photos you saw after the Mar-a-Lago raid of top-secret folders and classified files were fabricated. To look worse than they were.

You can be mad at the FBI for raiding a journalist (although we don’t have all the details and maybe there is some context you don’t know)… but be consistent.

The FBI staged that photo by combing through boxes. The TOP SECRET folders they showed were empty and they acknowledged that. This was a key component to Trump’s defense and the FBI conceded it.


Are you referring to the defense’s assertion that even though great care was taken by the FBI to ensure that no individual file would move from one box to another, the ordering within an individual box was not preserved and constituted a “spoilation” of the evidence?

Or are you referring to something else that I’m not yet aware of?

Edit with an article link, to set a standard for the quality of discourse: https://thehill.com/policy/national-security/4648830-mar-a-l...


Fabricated by whom? Like, out of whole cloth? Did the files not exist in the bathroom?

Citations needed.

The difference here is that the journalist got passed information by people who were committing the same crime Trump did. Trump directly committed his crime. The two are not equal.

Furthermore, Trump is no journalist, nor did he steal the secret files for journalistic purposes.


They moved them from a secure closet to a secure bathroom?

See manufacturing consent.

"And I would say, based on the current way things are going, the best advice I would give to white people is to get the hell away from Black people. Just get the fuck away. Wherever you have to go, just get away. Because there’s no fixing this. This can’t be fixed."

Adams was responding to a poll where a large amount of black americans gave bigoted responses about white people.

Only Americans deserve high per capita emissions.

You'll be very interested to know, USA not even in the top 10!

Last ice age had a km thick ice sheet going down to Berlin.

Yeah but I would think that is still survivable, unless it comes like that one dumb movie in which the ice age is a super quick one and everything happens in the space of 24 hours approximately.

Of course I'm thinking survivable with the magic of "technology" and maybe I'm adding wishful thinking into this science fiction scenario here, but I'm not sure if the result of the new Ice Age will be the same as the last one.


Survivable is a strong word. We can survive for a long time huddled around breeder reactors. IMO the better question is how many of the affected people would try to migrate to better areas and how much firepower they bring with them when they’re not welcome.

You'd need to pull habitations up by a couple meters each year for a few decades if that one km of ice sheet builds up gradually :D Probably survivable, but inside yurts instead of fully furnished flats with amenities.

Didn't help that his family moved to South Africa because Canada wasn't racist enough.

"That's fine dude. I'm not mad at you."

"Fucking bitch"

And people here defend his actions as self defense. He was angry. He shot in anger. This is murder.

She clearly didn't. She was trying to leave.

She backed up & pointed her vehicle to go right & then turned her wheels rightward. What did he do (while holding a cell phone & drawing his weapon)? Re-position in front of her car. If her intention was to 'run him over', she didn't act that way.

No, she didn't.

This guy apparently does, or at least he wanted to come just close enough that he could use it as an excuse to murder a woman.

ICE does not have jurisdiction to enforce traffic laws, she was not detained. The agents were harassing her, hoping she’d give them justification to execute her in broad daylight.

Obstruction of justice, impeding law enforcement activities, and disorderly conduct are not traffic laws.

You are trying to manufacture a justification for the murder of a mom because she was not free to leave and (you claim) assault. Neither of those are crimes punishable by death, nor allow for deadly force. And neither of those allow for extra-judicial enforcement of a punishment (murder).

If someone is doing/about to do bodily harm to you, you are allowed to defend yourself. She wasn't killed for breaking laws.

She was killed because, in the words of the shooter, he considered her "a fucking bitch".

The car wasn't aimed at him, it was slowly turning away, it didn't hit or touch him, his hand held phone jolted as he fired. He was seemingly fit and unharmed as he stomped away angry after firing three shots.

He moved into firing position as he didn't want her to leave and wanted to shoot her to stop her.


That doesn't make it ok to kill her. That's very very well established in law. If someone is fleeing you can't attack them.

> That's very very well established in law. If someone is fleeing you can't attack them.

FYI: Maybe in some jurisdictions within the United States, but not all.


Apparently you can?

> you

you can’t, they can. Important distinction.


Hope you won't find yourself in traffic with ice behind you.

Was with him in the first part, then wtf. Vance and the others dont stand for free speech either, it's only their own speech that matters and they'll proudly ban anything else.

Germany didn't really do a lot of that though.

Even the highly editorialzed says "cop dodges, fires". Then proceed to shoot two additional times through side window.

Laughable.
